re: The Definitive Boston Thread

Long time lurker here that just recently stumbled on these Boston threads. It’s been a treat to read all the recommendations and advice about different areas. I was wondering if you may be able to give me some tips for an upcoming trip up there. My wife and I are flying in on Thursday 12-27 and heading back Wednesday the 2nd of January. We have a few plans but are winging it on a good chunk of our stay. We are staying at the Westin Copley. We’re also going to the Pats/Jets game on the 30th. Using the Boston Common coach for transportation thanks to advice from some folks on a Patriots fan forum that I’ve been a member of for years and some people on a TripAdvisor forum. Have loose plans do do First Night stuff for New Years Eve. Also the Freedom Trail. Other than that we are still up in the air on the rest of our time there. Interested in hearing anybody’s recommendations for restaurants, cool bars, must see/do things. Thanks so much in advance!
